True story - I dated a big time NY attorney who was a partner in a firm that defended airlines in plane crashes. One of their clients was a Columbian airline that would crash quite a bit going into Bogata. When interviewing the family members to determine damages, often 2 wives (a US and a Columbian wife) would show up.

Last night was cool, we had dinner in front of the tv with the kids and watched the nightly news to see the miners, the kids were really into it and had a million questions. I was getting all choked up watching it. Great story. Its amazing what humans can accomplish when government gets out of the way.

Good article on the guys behind this.
